Is corporate ownership of salmon Legal? Not according to Madam Justice Newbury in her clearly written reasons for judgment in Marine Harvest’s petition to the COURT OF APPEAL FOR BRITISH COLUMBIA – Morton v. Marine Harvest Inc., 3009 BCCA 481

Justice Newbury did not accept the notion that farmed fish could be privately owned! That said, does any corporation have the right to alter the genetic makeup of something that is not their property?

So if the FDA approves GE salmon and the fish farms bring it to BC, farmed fish that don’t belong to anyone (according to Justice Newbury) will suddenly belong to a corporation – Corporate interests will claim ownership of those fish – it will go back to the Court while planet Earth copes with a man made fish that will never go away. Does anyone else see a problem with this? Does anyone see a legal conflict here?

The planet belongs to all of us…Not Mansanto, not BP,… All of its oceans we all have ownership and responsibility for! It’s not a place to try out nuclear weapons and boms or alter the flora and fauna. : (

There is no doubt the GMOs are dangerous to not only us, but the generations to come. We really have to come together to fight these giant monster corporations and the politicians whose greed far outweighs any serious conderation of the long term effects. I would like to have a bumper sticker for my car that is bright and noticeable with this webside on it because you never know how many otherwise unaware people just might notice it and start to question.
